About this listen

The first English translation of a classic adventure involving two very different twins by the celebrated author of The Letter for the King.

Twins Jiacomo and Laurenzo look exactly the same - but they are as different as night and day. Hard-working Laurenzo wants to make beautiful things and becomes a goldsmith; Jiacomo loves travel and adventure and uses his wiles to become an excellent thief....

The goldsmith and the master thief can easily be mistaken for one another, and this gets them both into and out of all kinds of trouble. From a case of mistaken identity involving the Knight of the Red Rose to the pursuit of the precious silver cups of Talamura, the brothers find themselves caught up in wild adventures that require all of their combined wisdom and cunning.

Translated by Laura Watkinson.

Original composition by Jo Paterson.

Excellent story

When I listened to the sample I thought it was a children’s book. Then I saw the length of the book and wondered how on earth the author was going to stretch this story out. It turned out to be the life story of twins who were as alike as two drops of water and yet so different. Excellent listening experience
